Comments on: JIRA To Omnifocus Script

On snowleopard I had to downgrade to rubygems 1.5.3 to get this script to work, though I still can’t store my username and password without an error.

Also when I move a jira item out of my inbox and import again, duplicates of the items show up again in my inbox..

A note on the comment I added above, the gem update at the beginning has two dashes in front of the word system (all others in the instructions are just one dash)

I guess the comment system automatically changes a double dash into an em-dash (that dash looks a bit longer than the others)

In case anyone else is trying to install this on Lion (with a fairly virgin install of Ruby…I’m not a Ruby developer)

sudo gem update –system
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”-arch x86_64″ gem install appscript
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”-arch x86_64″ gem install rb-appscript
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”-arch x86_64″ gem install crypt
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”-arch x86_64″ gem install password
sudo gem install getopt
sudo gem install activesupport -v ’2.0.2′

(that last line is required by the current version of the password gem, the latest version of active support (3) doesn’t seem to work with it.

This got the script working for me in 10.7.1
if you uncomment the line that reads “require ‘ruby-debug’” in an attempt to get more debug information, you will also need to run:

sudo gem install ruby-debug

I will answer my own question: Use the OSX baked in Ruby support to get this working

Ruby refuses to install Appscript for me. Could you tell me which Ruby implementation you’re using that was happy to run Appscript (Oneclick, MacRuby, default Ruby instance, etc…)?

Thanks

I had to “sudo gem install activesupport –version < 2" in order to get this to work on my 10.6.7 machine, if anyone else is struggling.

Thanks David! Just working. I got the tip from Omni support because I asked for the integration.
Feature request (unfortunately I have no clue about Ruby): We have several projects in Jira. I set up a filter with my open tasks for all projects. So it would be perfect if there would be a chance to create the Omni-tasks in any kind of a project structure and not flat in the inbox. With this it would minimize manual work.
A tip for using: it took me a while to figure out the ID for the filter since it is not displayed anywhere on the Jira pages (at least i couldn’t find it). But just use the filter and look on the Jira URL in your browser. The “requestID” is what you want.

I depend on some libraries, so 1.9 compatibility depends on the libraries’ compatibility.

Crypt is not compatible with Ruby 1.9, but gem install crypt19 and it will get past that.

It looks like there’s also an appscript problem calling name.get on ruby1.9. May just be my install though. Using ruby 1.8.X seems to work correctly.

Ruby 1.9 seems unhappy…

Thanks so much or the great work. Alain I’m going to try your script out next. It would be nice to get these integrated. I’ll work on it a bit as well

I did have to download the getopt gem as well to get it to work
